I think its about time I post something happy, right? Anyway, if there's one thing I love doing, its making things. I love to paint, yes, but MAKING things is what I really really like doing.

I've been working on this whenever I get a chance, and have been photographing the progress. I want to make a tutorial for making a simple Keyblade because when I posted my Pumpkin Head Keyblade on deviantART a few years ago, a common question was how I made it. There are many keyblades out there that are custom made from metal and wood, and while those are pretty awesome, not everyone can make one of those, or commission one. My keyblades are made from sturdy cardboard, been re-enforced and hand painted. So they're light (and will probably pass most weapons policies that conventions have)

Yea, since i dont have a computer anymore, i find that im spending more time playing video games. :| oops. I have Realmscon in October (need to check the dates... October 1-3 ) anyway, i really plan to attend this year, because heaven knows im not waiting around for Shimakon to pull their shit together, and Banzi!con is already off on the wrong foot. Once again, i say this. I, in no way, no what goes on behind running or building up a convention, BUT, is it really realistic to announce one and have a 3-day convention, in under 6 months? I dont know and i dont think so. Anyway, its being held Thanksgiving weekend, and, there is no website or anything. Only a facebook/myspace/twitter account. and most of those are silly updates anyway. :|
i hate living here for conventions. REALLY. ugh. ANYWHO. cosplay PLANS.
PLANS FOR JULY, AUGUST, SEPTEMBER. (really. FUCK. is it only 2 months away!?? *PANICS*)
-GET MONEY. (this is a MUST)
(once i have that.. then i can get the rest of this shit)
Matt Cosplay:
-b/w striped shirt (Wufei has this) -modify boots for
-modify other pants (because i gained weight =__= )
-cigarettes
-gloves
-vest (fuck, its the whole cosplay. isnt it. =A= )
Neo Cosplay:
-white wig (still gotta ask Laura where she got her Near wig.)
-boots
-red leather/faux leather. whatever would work
-make weapon
-figure out the Devil Arm
-FINISH the trench coat
-i may have to find a leather to make a vest out of, but, i'll be using the hoodie i already have, and sew that onto the vest. =___= so much to do, so little time.
(i have red material to make the vest actually, but, i think i really like the leather look instead..and staring at the screencap, it does look like material.. but i reeeallly like the leather. LOL |D )
HELL the only think i DO have for this cosplay, is the black under armor shirt that Nero wears.
Anyway, since im not online anymore (or glued to it like i used to be) I think i'll get my ass into gear, and start on SOMETHING tomorrow. and being more active. thats certain.
i think i will make the vest right now. ...
